Boat activity

Not so many fishing vessels on the water this Sunday with all the fog (total count of 4)

7 tour boats, mostly in the afternoon as the fog faded

Ecological happenings

Two Californians spotted with relatively fresh gashes

Californian seal lion brand 8329 and 9776 spotted (need to verify whether this record has been collected)

Commenced looking for tangled sea lions in preparation for detanglment on Oct 28th

3 Dunlins spotted

Maintenance

Cheeky sea lions continue to dismantle the electric fence and drop equipment into the water, so we’ve been on top of mending it.
